Instructions:
- Decide between surface (sea) mail, airmail or Global Priority Mail. Surface mail is much cheaper, but takes much longer. Global Priority Mail is the quickest, most expensive and most reliable. Unfortunately, it is limited to some countries.
- Add the Postage Numbers of all the books you want to order. Not necessary for Global Priority Mail.
-
Global Priority envelopes are often the best choice for a small order, particularly of Center publications. It is an option to explore. Its reach, however, is limited.
- Note the difference in countries and continents. Make sure you select your own.
- The amount of postage is the actual U.S. postal charges plus a small handling fee of about $1.00.
For those who are wondering, the United States is one of three or four countries in the world that are not yet metric. Our Post Office weighs everything in ounces (about 28 grams) and pounds (about 2.2 pounds to a kilogram). The Postage Numbers are the weight of the books in ounces.
